Morioka Kohei wanted to become a photographer, but all pictures he took were of ghosts. While visiting an old castle in Germany he met a vampire girl, Hazuki.

Hazuki was confined in the castle. She tried to suck Kohei’s blood to make him her slave, but somehow it didn’t work. However, because he happened to break the device to seal her into the castle, Hazuki successfully escaped from the castle and left for Japan to look for her mother.

When she arrived to Japan, she went to Kohei’s house in which he was living with his grand father, and began to live with them forcefully. Because Kouhei had also lost his mother during his childhood, Hazuki reminded him of his childhood and helped her to look for her mother. Then, another vampire girl, Elfriede, and Count Heinrich von Kinkell came and try to take her back.

Based on a Manga by Arima Keitarou, published in Comic Gum by wani books.

Note: The original encode had the English dub as the default laguage, with signs and lyrics as the default subtitles. This was changed to Japanese as the default language with full subtitles.

In addition, while all episodes have IDX subtitles (from the DVD, these are “image” subtitles, not text to be rendered), Episodes 11 to 26 also have SRT subtitles (text subtitles rendered by the video player). While SRT subtitles are ‘prettier,’ I decided to default to IDX subtitles for all episodes for 2 reasons:

1) Consistency

2) SRT subtitles in situations like this are ususally done by doing OCR on the IDX subtitles, which can result in errors (mistaking ‘l’ for ‘1’, etc.)
